I enjoy archery, too, and made a PVC recurve bow this year at Rapids Archery Club. I also build model rockets and am a Junior Member of the Tripoli Minnesota High Power Rocketry Club. |
 | The Amazing MonarchI love monarch butterflies and their entire life cycle! They are so beautiful. Spring is my favorite season because that is when the monarchs begin to arrive here. They fly long distances! I will be sharing some information and craft projects to celebrate the monarch. |

 | Hobart’s Funnies, Inventive, Silly-looking tanks and vehicles used in WWIIIn WWII, a 57-year-old British retired soldier with crazy ideas about tanks built some of the craziest-looking, most inventive tanks ever. People called them Hobart’s Funnies. Some of them could even float. |

 | Backyard ChickensMy favorite things are swimming in the lake, jumping on trampolines, playing games and Hawaii Five-O. My project is about backyard chickens, including basic chicken needs, chicks, hens, coops, and food. I really enjoyed making this project because it contained video, clay, research and writing. |
 | Art PerspectivesI decided to work on different ways to recreate a certain object. I wanted to try doing different types of art techniques that I have never before tried. I think art is a really good way to express emotions and your creative side. |
